Sunday Service'sFirst off. HOLY MONKEYS! It was cold this morning. I now remember why I don't like skirts! WOW! We went to my grandma's church this morning. It was a really good church service. It's different than Baptist, but hey...I'll take what I can get. Not to mention, I pretty much know everyone there. I'm hoping to go back next weekend. FELICIA, I promised my grandma I'd ask you if you wanted to go...They have like 0 youth. Yeah, they are all old, but sweet as gold...It doesn't bother me that everyone is old...I actually kind-of fit in better with old people. I guess because that's all I've been around. Brother Philip has an amazing singing voice. Ok, maybe not AMAZING, but he sing's really good. And Mrs. Settle's play's a mean piano. She use to live the next hill over from us. She now lives across the pond from Martha. I miss talking to Mrs. Settle's and OV. They are really sweet people. I think half of my family was there. Uncle Ricky, Uncle Roy, Melissa, Mike, Haley, Mom, Dad, Barbara, Judy, Brittney, Maybell, and Bobby...I think that's all...Judy drove all the way from Wardell to go to church with us this morning. That was sweet. Anyway...This was the first time I'd ever actually witnessed people litterly worshipping out loud, and all that stuff. I'm use to a more calm, and quieter church. But it was really neat. I'm so not knocking it, because you really could feel the God there with us all. In all honesty, I haven't ever felt the presence of God at church, until today. Isn't that weird? I asked my dad this morning if we could keep going, and he said yeah. But we'll see. I told him straight-up "The only problem we'll probably have is mom." I don't know why she doesn't like going to church. As long as I feel comfortable, and like the sermon's given, I feel like it bring's me closer to God. I don't understand why people run away from it. I'm not quite comfortable raising hand's and worshipping God in front of everyone. But I look at this way, they didn't see me worshipping God, but God did! I really want to go to service's tonight, but I doubt I will. Since it's still raining, and it's cold, and nasty.
We had a funny in church though...Uncle Roy is a midget, and it doesn't take much to make him fall asleep. Well, if he just sit's down, he's down for the count. Because more than likely with-in 5 minute's he's asleep. After did about 3 or 4 song's, we sat down for the sermon. About half way through, we hear *snooooore* I turned around and i caught Uncle Ricky poking Uncle Roy in the side. He fell asleep durning the sermon! Oh my! I couldn't stop myself, I started laughing. Melissa's face turned beat red, and she started crying because she was laughing so hard. I think both of our two pew's were laughing. I felt bad, because I didn't want the pastor think we weren't paying attention, but goodness. THAT was funny! I didn't think people actually fell asleep in church. I guess so!
We had a HUGE turn out here at the house today after church. Let me think...Sandy, Carlos, Dakota, Shirley, Judy, Brittney, Amanda, her boyfriend, Melissa, Haley, Aunt Emma, Uncle Bill, Barbara, Maybell, Bobby, Uncle Roy, Uncle Ricky, Brian, Carla, Taylor, and some lady that I really should remember her name...She's family...But I can't remember her name...We had 20 or more people here. AND our house isn't THAT big. But we managed.
After everyone left, I finally got to hold Taylor. Well, last night dad, and I went to Brian's. They all played poker. Well, I was sitting in the chaser with Taylor. I fed him, burpped him, and then he fell asleep. I took care of him pretty much the whole time we were there. BUT I'm not complaining, because I loved every moment of it. Anyway, I fell asleep with him last night. We didn't get home till around 1 this morning. Then we had to be up around 7, to get ready for church. It was cool, I was awake by 5. But I fell back to sleep. But it was all good. ANYWAY, back to my story. I held him today after everyone left. I fed him, and then burpped him. Then he went back to sleep. So I laid down on the couch. Next thing I knew, I was waking up. LOL! I slept about an hour. I needed it. I never got to do stuff like that with the other kids. Because a.) I hardly ever saw them when they were that size or b.) I was to young. But I'm loving it now. MAYBE I'll get picture's up sometime soon!
Ok, I'll shut-up now...
